remembering berlin wall

The motivation of this project is to design a monument, which will remind the people about the negative impact of the Berlin Wall.

Building a Berlin Wall was not only a geopolitical division, it also affected human minds, social behaviour and everyday life. The Berlin Wall had been separating people for 28 years. This separation is being memorized by placing the system of public objects, which attract people to the trace of the Berlin Wall.

The past function of the Berlin Wall is now tranfomed - instead of separating people, the trace of the Berlin Wall now becomes a place of gathering. Looking at the recent trace, the Berlin Wall draws through the city, three devices have been designed, fitting the characteristics of the environment. The result shows expemplary proposals forming into an exercise device, a bench and a bike stand.

The designed objects grow out of the trace of the Berlin Wall and interact with their environment; their function and configuration is being changed depending on the features of the site.
